Sure Hotel By Best Western Muenchen Hauptbahnhof

“Reliable”

Great value for money in a v central location. Not the prettiest part of town but right next to S train & main station. Pleasant & courteous staff and at a great price too. 200 characters required apparently for this- I wasn’t planning on an essay submission

“Hostel vibes”

Conveniently located across the road from Munich central station which is ideal for a bag dump and explore. We were able to put our luggage in the luggage store as we were too early to check-in. Electrical valuables to be handed in behind reception for more secure storage and you are provided with a ticket. It is an old style building with an old fashioned appearance from the front. We did not include breakfast with our booking but was told we could take a peek of the buffet style breakfast in the morning and if we liked what we saw we could pay €14 pp at checkout. Reception staff were responsive and happy enough to help with guidance. Our room was on the 6th floor with lovely views across the station sky line. These rooms do not have aircon and due to the hot/humid weather the room was unbearably warm. Windows can be opened widely with no safety features so high up and a fan was in the room but made little difference being so humid. Bathroom was old fashioned and tired. The shower was a tray with a curtain which meant water flooded the bathroom floor each time which had caused damaged to the flooring. However, you can tell this is because of the age of the building. Basic ameneties provided; TV, fan, tea/coffee station, bottled water, body wash. The hotel to me had a hostel feel to it but was fine for one or two nights exploring Munich on a budget. Traveller tips: ▪︎ Just up the road (3min walk) you can catch the Sightseeing hop on/hop off buses (x3). For €29 you can take 3 different bus routes, each 1hr long, seeing all the main sights and areas of Munich including the old town, Olympic Village and museums. Great if exploring Munich in less than 24hrs and includes audio tour (headphones provided). ▪︎ The train from airport is direct and takes approx 40mins. Catch the S28 train. ▪︎ The Rathaus-Glockenspiel is a large mechanical clock located in Marienplatz Square and only operated 3 times a day. Check times to plan your day but 5pm most popular.

“Good location to stay is cool temperature”

Air conditioning was very bad, super hot nights as we couldn’t get the room cooled with the small unit in the room (hidden behind the curtains which we discovered AFTER the first very hot night ). Very small shower and tv didn’t work. Staff was very nice downstairs and great location,

“Weekend stay”

The most positive is the location It was extremely hot with no airconditioning Bed was good Breakfast was basic but good I would stay again but only if there are no major events as the price was higher then normal and I did not think it was worth the price

“Location saves the day”

I was only at this hotel for one night. There was no AC (somehow I missed this, maybe I just expected anything by Best Western to have AC) but they did have a fan in the room.

I was only at this hotel for one night. There was no AC (somehow I missed this, maybe I just expected anything by Best Western to have AC) but they did have a fan in the room. However, it was really brutally hot. For some reason my floor sloped dramatically--maybe they added plumbing and didn't want to add a step but there was a good 8 inch grade change in the room. The room is definitely older and due for an update. However, the location was superb. You could walk in fairly straight line and reach the Rathaus, which is nice. The main train station (hauptbahnhof or hbf) is pretty literally across the street. This means you can catch your train anywhere else with ease and also can use the subway stops quite easily. This is pretty user friendly. Everything you might want is right nearby--shops, restaurants, quick food, transport. You don't need a car. So I would give it a 3/5. It's pretty average, uninspiring on the inside, but the location makes up for a lot.
